[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 244531, member: 84"] husband and I were considered legally responsible for Aubrey until the day Nichole turned 18. Any legal/medical decision regarding her required out signature as well as Nichole's. In a pinch....they'd use her Dad's because he was over 18.....but they still always wanted mine next to his as a backup since he didn't have custody. I dunno how the actual laws are written. But this is how it worked out in reality for us. Nichole could make no decision about the baby without one of her parents present to back it up. Maybe that is because she still lived at home........Maybe they were just covering their fannies? I dunno. Like I said, though....... If your daughter is underage, I'd imagine you'd still be legally responsible for her, pregnant or not. I do know that Nichole's 13 yr old friend was emancipated by her mother because mother did not want responsibility for the baby. And boy, did that turn out to be a mega disaster all the way around with the baby coming up the big time loser!! :( Maybe it's time to put her on the bc shot so you won't have to worry as much about any surprises.
